“Long time listener, first time caller”
Hi all, I’ve been lurking here for a while and finally decided to join and buy a pin. I (overspent, I now know) bought a non working 1973 Williams 1973 triple action for 350. It wouldn’t power on When you hit the power switch. I figured out that the machine will run. When switched on, you have to hit the start button and then the whole machine comes to life. Not really sure if that’s how it’s supposed to work.
Well, after running it for a minute, I freed up some PF scoring contacts that were touching causing the machine to endlessly score.
Shortly thereafter though, the machine now won’t start, but the lights will come on when you hit the left flipper button.
This is a lot of word vomit, I know. But my question for all you is where should I start with this machine? Since I spent 350 on it, the least I think I should do is get it running
This machine is nasty inside (I’ll try to post pics). I’ve been working on it best I can with a vacuum and compressed air.
